Radu Malfatti & Klaus Filip, Sat 21 March, 16:25-17:10, The Arches

Who

Radu is one of the most un-stuck-up yet quietly radical composers you'd care to meet. Klaus is a pioneering laptop improviser, musician and software programmer9.

What

Radu plays a trombone, Klaus creates pure sine waves: they sound on their own, or sometimes together and often with considerable space and silence.

Why

Not a lot happens, just sound events to be listened to and spaces where sounds might occur. You bring as much to it as the musicians. The music is full of possibilities: of texture and colour, irregularities and questions.

9Klaus will be giving a workshop on his Lloopp software, designed for live improvisation. Check the Extras section for details.
